Details...


Thanks everyone for your comments. We are very excited. I felt very blessed and excited to find out when I was pregnant with Cameron and now to be able to give birth to two babies is a wonderful blessing. Although I have had a few hard times and been sick, I really try not to take any moment for granted. And wanted to say thank you to some dear friends who have been very sweet and supportive to me. Love you guys. Hope you know who you are.

So I know there were questions and details wanted so here you go...

How far along am I?
15 weeks

When is my due date?
November 9th

When was Cameron's?
November 5th, Yep! After years of testing and fertility treatments we found that my body just didn't work. My doctor thinks that maybe I really just ovulate once a year at the exact same time. WEIRD!!!

How is it going?
Good, no big problems. I started getting Hydronephrosis again at the exact same time as with Cameron, but it is doing ok now. Just a little back pain. This time around we found an issue but it is under control and so far no big deal.

Do you want a boy or girl or have any guesses?
I think a boy or a girl would be fun for different reasons. At first I thought it was a girl, since I was a little more sick and had the "girl" cravings. But really I know that a lot of those Old wives tales are just that. I think that Cameron would love a brother to get into trouble with, but Brooklynn REALLY wants a sister. She told me... "But mom, I already have a brother and I don't have a sister." In fact she gets really mad if I tell her we may have a boy. We have been working with her and I have her convinced that the baby is a boy, just so if he/she is Brooklynn isn't disapointed and if we have a girl it will be a big surprise.

Are you going to find out or be surprised?
I am going to be surprised, when I find out in 4-5 weeks. I like to be ready, I am a planner.

Hey, have you ever heard of the drain-o test? Look it up online. There are about 15 ladies in my ward pregnant right now and we all did it together at a baby shower and all but one of us ended up with a correct result. The girl that it was wrong for was only about 5 weeks along and the info on line I think says you should be at least 10 weeks before you try it. You could try that early and see if it is right, but make sure and follow the directions online if you do- warning: it smells pretty terrible!

So fun! Glad everything is going well. Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister was good, it just took like a good 100 pages to really pick up. The beginning was really slow.
